XV: Christmas Special

This is a Christmas special, it doesn't follow the storyline at all. I thought we should take a break from the main storyline. It's literally just going to be a funny chapter and it will be slightly shorter. It has absolutely no meaning which makes me laugh, it's just so stupid. P.S. If there are any grammatical errors just understand that I'm having a hard time typing because I burnt my hands baking Christmas cookies. :)-Duvichi

Did I wake up to the sound of trumpets?

Yes. Yes, I did. I threw the covers off of me and hopped out of bed. It sounded like a party was coming from downstairs. I was genuinely concerned. I opened the door to look over the balcony and was shocked to the core.

A massive tree was decorated with an assortment of different colored ornaments and a whiskey bottle sat at the very top as the star. I palmed my face, it was creative but could've been better. Decorations lined the walls and the pillows were festive. The fireplace had stockings and the bottom of the tree was covered in different shapes of boxes.

Ran, Rindou, Takeomi, and Sanzu all sat on the couch drinking a crisp bottle of champagne, they all had ugly Christmas sweaters on. Sanzu even had a little Santa hat on the top of his head.

A laugh escaped my throat as I skipped down the stairs, "I didn't think we'd get this festive for Christmas guys! What happened?" I smiled running up to the couch and stopping abruptly to look at every one.

Ran chuckled with a smug grin, "Well last night Sanzu, Rindou, and I were drunk as a skunk and woke up to this." He put his arm out to point at various decorations.

"Damn drinking after a hangover, that's hard." I cross my arms with a smile, "Anyways, how the hell did the presents get here?"

Koko's voice appeared from the kitchen, "Kakucho and I have been getting presents for everyone this year!" Intrigued I walked over to the kitchen to find, Mikey wearing an elf costume. They were all baking cookies.

A laugh irrupted from my throat, I couldn't help it. Mikey looked so innocent and helpless. Even though he could kill you with a single kick if he wanted to. The little bells on his curled shoes made the situation become hysterical.

"Good morning guys." I finally composed myself enough to speak, I was practically shitting tears.

"Morning [y/n]." Kakucho said without looking at me, he was too concentrated on stirring the cookie batter. He had a Santa hat on his head but the rest of him was still dressed head to toe in a suit. That's probably as festive he would get.

Koko took a pan of cookies and put them in the oven, he turned around to speak but wasn't paying attention and palmed the top of the oven. He began cursing widely and slammed the oven shut in anger.

Kakucho looked up finally and Mikey just starred blankly at Koko's red hot hand. I rushed over in a panic, his hand was already blistering. It was bumpy and red, he definitely had second-degree burns.

I bent down to his level because he was hunched over clutching his hand. I smiled at him, "Let's get you all patched up and open presents, should we?"

"Sure."

...

Koko was unusually stubborn while wrapping his hand, apparently, he never burned himself ever.

But now we were all on the couch together getting ready to open presents. Instead of hard liquor like everyone else, I stuck to the simple taste of hot chocolate. I sat next to Sanzu and his muscular arm wrapped around my shoulders. It was weirdly comfortable after a stressful couple of days.

"Alright is everyone ready?" Koko said rubbing his hands together nervously, everyone shook their heads, so Koko went in a started throwing presents at people.

"Knowing Koko it's probably going to all be high-quality expensive stuff." Sanzu leaned in and whispered in my ear, I could smell the alcohol in his breath.

I laughed and turned to face him, "I mean I'm not complaining."

Sanzu shrugged and sat the glass of whiskey on the table, Koko passed a present to everyone but Sanzu. Even I got one.

"Hey, shitstain, where the hell is my present?" Sanzu asked throwing his arms in the air. Koko froze and turned slowly, the panic in his face was immaculate. I was one hundred percent sure that he forgot to get Sanzu a present. Whoopsie.

I laughed as the realization clicked in Sanzu's waisted brain, "Oh you fucker, you forgot it didn't you?"

"Yes, I did." Koko accepted his fate but paused a moment. A lightbulb appeared above his head and his face lit up. The look on his face made me uneasy.

He threw his arms up, "Alright ladies and gentlemen, if you could wait to open your presents. Because I forgot about Sanzu's present and I have to go get it." Everyone reluctantly agreed, he turned around to face me, "[y/n] come with me, ill need your assistance."

Oh lord. I stood up and set my hot chocolate down, I followed Koko upstairs with an uneasy stomach. We walked into his room and shut the door. He had this smug look on his face that every evil rich person has. "You're going to be his present."

"Absolutely not."

He rolled his eyes, "Please [y/n]. Sanzu will go batshit crazy if I don't give him one. He'll probably shit in my pillow or force me to snort crack in my sleep."

I turned around with my arms crossed and glared at him. "That's not my problem."

He some how coerced me into being Sanzu's present. He put me in this godawful red dress, it was skin tight and had absolutely no coverage whatsoever. For the final touch he put a golden bow on my head. I don't even know how I let it come to that point.

He opened the bedroom door and ordered everyone to shut their eyes, not long after he dragged me to the living room and made me stand in the center. Like a monument or something, it was bullshit.

I scoffed and looked anywhere but Sanzu and Koko, I will beat the shit out of Koko later. And I hope he comes out dead. Not actually though. If Sanzu beat the shit out of him, even better.

"Open," Koko announced and did jazz hands, everyone uncovered their eyes. No one spoke which made it awkward, I wanted to die eternally.

Koko laughed awkwardly, I'm pretty sure he was starting to realize the situation, "So Sanzu, I forgot your present so [y/n] will be your present this year." He laughed nervously now because Sanzu was radiating a menacing aura.

Ran's eyes stared at my chest, Rindou was looking at me with a smirk which gave me butterflies, Takeomi and Kakucho were staring respectfully. And Mikey wasn't even looking, he was just laughing.

"He coerced me into this. I did not choose this by choice." I pointed out, hoping everyone would get the gist.

Sanzu charged of the couch and rammed into Koko like an American football player. He knocked over a vase and a bookshelf. Everything came crashing down and I had to jump to take cover. Mikey burst out laughing and the remainder of Bonten members cheered the two on.

While I huddled behind the couch covering my chest because the cheap dress broke, I heard yells and chants from everyone. And things slammed against the floor and bodies thumped against the floor as well. The sounds that came from Sanzu and Koko sounded painful.

Let us just say we never got to opening presents, but one of us did get to spend the holidays in the ER. And it wasn't me.
